Hani 1 , I. Britikovski 1 , H. Voll 1 <strong>and</strong> T.-A. Kõiv 11Tallinn University of Technology, Department of Envir<strong>on</strong>mental Engineering, Est<strong>on</strong>iaABSTRACTIn this paper sea water district cooling feasibilityanalysis for Tallinn is presented. It has become more<strong>and</strong> more interesting to study alternative soluti<strong>on</strong>s forpublic buildings A/C cooling due to relatively highelectrical energy prices. Besides ec<strong>on</strong>omical aspectstechnical <strong>and</strong> envir<strong>on</strong>mental sides must be c<strong>on</strong>sidered.INTRODUCTIONalso important to locate the district cooling stati<strong>on</strong> nearto energy source.Typical SW district cooling system principle is indicatedin Figure 1. The system c<strong>on</strong>sists of three mainsecti<strong>on</strong>s:Cold sea water pumping;<strong>Cooling</strong> plant with heat exchangers;St<strong>and</strong>ard cooling distributi<strong>on</strong> network.The first large district cooling systems were developedduring the 1960‘s in Hartford (1962) <strong>and</strong> California(1965) in United States [10]. The first systems inEurope were La Defense (1967) in France <strong>and</strong> inHamburg (1968) Germany [1]. In the beginning of the70`s the first system in Japan (Shinjuku) was built [3].However, because of the energy crises in the end of70`s, the <strong>District</strong> <strong>Cooling</strong> development was slow <strong>and</strong> n<strong>on</strong>ew large systems were built. Until the end of 80`swhen many new large systems were opened forexample Kioi-cho, Nishi-Shinjuku in Japan <strong>and</strong> TrigenTrent<strong>on</strong> in United States. Also the first district coolingsystem of the Nordic countries was installed in Norway.Operati<strong>on</strong> started in 1989 in Baerum, near Oslo. Thefirst system in Sweden was built in 1992 in Västerås [2]<strong>and</strong> since then the district cooling in Sweden hasdeveloped rapidly. Since the 1990‘s the establishmentof commercial district cooling systems has increasedrapidly worldwide. Nowadays, more than 20 countrieshave a commercial district cooling system <strong>and</strong> this isexpected to increase rapidly [4].The sea water (SW) district cooling is based <strong>on</strong> largenatural cold water source. Enough cold water isaccumulated in lakes, seas, oceans, rivers, etc [8].Lowering the coolant temperature with sea water is analternative to c<strong>on</strong>venti<strong>on</strong>al electrical energy c<strong>on</strong>sumingchillers [5]. The system working principle is quite similarto geothermal energy producti<strong>on</strong> which is used inheating systems [6]. Until now the sea water districtcooling is quite c<strong>on</strong>servatively exp<strong>and</strong>ed around theWorld.SW DISTRICT COOLING PRINCIPLEThe temperature in c<strong>on</strong>venti<strong>on</strong>al cooling water networkis between +4…+7 o C so applicable the sea watertemperature should be below +5 oC . Despite thatcompressor based cooling can be used in case coolingwater temperature is higher than menti<strong>on</strong>ed [9]. It is153Fig. 1 SW district cooling principle schematicHeat exchangers allow usage of the soft water indistributi<strong>on</strong> network while problematic salty sea waterh<strong>and</strong>ling will be d<strong>on</strong>e in open central circuit.Envir<strong>on</strong>mental impact study is required before any ofthe projects will be executed. Large sea waterquantities have to be available to minimize pumpingimpacts. In additi<strong>on</strong> to evaluati<strong>on</strong> of the deep z<strong>on</strong>e coldwater pumping, the analysis of recycling the sea waterback to lower sea water z<strong>on</strong>e with higher temperaturesshould be made.Following factors shall be c<strong>on</strong>sidered before systemdesign [7]: Minimum altitudes between heat exchangers <strong>and</strong>water resource level should be designed; Centralized district cooling plant (heat exchangers,pumping stati<strong>on</strong> <strong>and</strong> chillers) is less expensivethan decentralised system; Centralized system has less maintenanceproblems.DESIGN PARAMETERSTemperature of the sea water varies during differentseas<strong>on</strong>s <strong>and</strong> distance from the coast.
